I hit the battlegrounds last night for the first time, with my 47 mage. I entered into a game where we were already up 2-1, and started looking around. I asked in /1 to be invited to the raid, but no one said anything. I ran around our base for a few minutes, until I got the hang of it, and then ran over to the horde base. Everyone was fighting in the middle, so I just went around and walked into the base. The flag was there, so I picked it up and ran off. I made it back to our base with no problems -- I think no one knew where the "new guy" was. After about 5 tense minutes of hiding in our base, my team returned the flag and I captured it.
Oh, they invited me to the raid right after the guy started shouting "The Horde flag was picked up by Lopt!"
In the second game, we got into a stalemate after about 90 minutes. We were up 2-0. We had their flag, and the flag carrier was hiding on the roof of our house. They had our flag, and their flag carrier was on the roof of their house. I was on defense mostly, but after 20 minutes of that the leader shifted me to offense.
I tried to get everyone together at the mouth of the horde tunnel. Twice we rushed in with about 4 guys; each time they beat us back. They were defending with a druid, 2 rogues, and a shaman flag carrier.
On the third run, we had 5 guys. A hunter was about 10 yards ahead of me running up the tunnel, and the other 3 were a little bit behind me. I said "wait, lets group up at door". The hunter grabbed the boots, and ran up the ramp as fast as he could. By the time I made it to the door, he was already dead at the top of the ramp. Next thing in /raid:
[Hunter] : OMG Why didn't you guys follow me
Then he starts complaining about how we are newbs, and this is his first day in BG and already he knows more than any of us. Sigh.
After we rez, I say again, "all offense to mouth of tunnel, lets group up". I am mounted, and ride past that hunter fighting against horde in the middle of the map. Why do people do this? Who cares about guys in the middle of the map? The situation is very simple: we kill shaman, we win.
After about 15 more minutes of hopeless attacks, they eventually kill our flag carrier, and capture the flag. Everything goes back to normal, and we win about 10 minutes later 3-1.
I really like warsong guich. It is so much more fun than any other pvp I've had in this game, and I play on one of the big pvp servers.
